My thoughts released; a mind set free |
|
These pages contain my thoughts, from meandering ideas and persuasions to deep cerebrations and serious mentations. Why, for what purpose? To release my mind and set creativity free. Somewhere inside the constraints of my mind dwells a writer, a poet, an artist who paints with words. In here I release those constraints and set the artist free. Perhaps, lost somewhere in the depths of thought, is a story or a poem, waiting to be written.

| I have my truck highway-legal again! My wife stopped by the local DMV and they were actually open again and took her without an appointment. She showed them the letter we received from the state that said we still needed to pay ten dollars to get the tabs for the truck showed them the canceled check and they took care of the rest. They informed her that a lot of people had the same problems with it taking three or more months to get anything back. So, she came home from work with two, pretty, red, and current stickers for me to put on the plates. The downside, we are under a severe weather warning until Friday afternoon and our warm weather is coming to an end with dropping temperatures starting, well about now. There is no prediction for snow amounts except that it could be as little as an inch or as high as a foot or more. We may see some freezing rain yet tonight, but it depends on how soon the precipitation and the colder air arrive. In other words, the National Weather Service gave the best forecast I have heard in a long time, there are a couple of fronts moving through and we don't have any idea what the weather's going to do beyond strong winds and colder temperatures. That means my counter project for the garage is kind of held up unless I can get some heat going in there. I do have a torpedo heater that would warm it right up, but I had let my brother use it and it ended up stored for a few years with fuel in it. It could be jelled and all gummed up. I suppose it's as good a time as any to bring it out of storage and see if it fires or not. I will run a cord outside and try it outdoors just in case it tries to fire and blows out a lot of sooty smoke instead. If the wind isn't too bad, I may be able to get out on the ice for a while, but since I'm walking out, if we get much for snow and the temperature drops too much, with high winds, I'm staying inside. The Clam shelter I have is pretty good for warming up and staying warm and I have anchors to hold it in place in strong winds, but I don't feel like working that hard to drag everything out through the snow and cold, set up in the miserable weather, then relax and enjoy a few hours inside the shelter only to have to go through it all again to get back. If the ice was thick enough to drive on, maybe, but walking... I'm in no shape! Of course, we have been getting very lucky with the snowstorms and maybe it will hold. If the forecast temperatures are accurate and the torpedo heater works, I may get my work done while the wind blows and once it lets up, go out fishing for a day. Again, it all depends on outcomes and time. Sunday is spoken for, my mother-in-law needs her meds set up for the following week, and the woman who usually comes over to do this got sick this week and has tested positive for Covid-19. However, my mother-in-law may have gotten things messed up, she may have not gotten sick but has come into contact with someone who has and may have been exposed to Covid. We will find out more by this weekend. Don't worry, if I suspect that I may have been exposed, I can maintain my six feet or more. I have a wireless keyboard and mouse and the monitor is big enough I can sit six or more feet back if I have too. Ya, I know, it's time to go to bed, I'm just getting silly now. |
